Abstract
Using the Kato-Rosenblum theorem, we describe the absolutely continuous spectrum of a class of weighted integral Hankel operators in $L^2(\bbR_+)$. These self-adjoint operators generalise the explicitly diagonalisable operator with the integral kernel $s^\alpha t^\alpha(s+t)^{-1-2\alpha}$, where $\alpha>-1/2$.Our analysis can be considered as an extension of J.~Howland's 1992 paper which dealt with the unweighted case, corresponding to $\alpha=0$.
